All user reviews for the Fender Special Edition Aerodyne Stratocaster [2005-2006]

Fender Stratocaster aerodyne 2005, crafted in japan.
22 vintage frets really.
engraved vintage Fender vibrato, 6 points.
settings theft, and two middle tones and neck.
Rosewood handle end, screwed, nice vintage mechanical. The only bad point is access to acute.

UTILIZATION

Thin handle very nice, difficult access to acute.
Exellent ergonomic shape and weight, light guitar.
The sound is good on the neck and middle pickups / neck, which is a nice surprise

SOUNDS

The sound fits well with a variety or music not too tortured blues
Amp sale 1980, no effect
The sound is crystalline and slightly slamming, but frankly lack of aggression from a vintage stratocaster. Although thinner, however, that Mexico Stratocasters. It is indeed a real fender sound, clear, powerful, but a little too clean. It is impossible, regardless of the style of attack with a pick, the grind or scream, in short, what you love with a Stratocaster.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two days.
Special feature: excellent ergonomics, handsome design, simple but high quality instrument making. The downside is the sound too modern and sterile for my taste.
I tried the Mexican series that I found less interesting. The Highway One are more interesting in her, but much less "finished".
For an amateur looking for a beautiful design and good ergonomics, quality / price ratio is interesting. For sound, the same price range, it is better to buy a higway. Maybe try to change the pickups?
With experience, I think this is an exellent guitar study at purchase.
